Should I tell her why I decided to date her?

[SinfulExchanges]

I am a very picky person when it comes to dating and choosing girlfriends. I am currently with someone that I have strong emotional feelings for. She won me over because of the type of person she is. Our one month anniversary is coming up this Thursday and I am undecided if I should tell her the reasons why I decided to date her and make her my girlfriend. At the time we were dating there were other "perspectives" out there gunning for me, but I am very happy with my decision to be with her. She knows I'm a very picky person when it comes to dating and she wants to know why. I try to brush off the question, but she wants an answer and I told her maybe on our one month anniversary. I know what I'm asking is dumb and this thread should be deleted, but I only have a few more days left; should I tell her or not?

No. Do not throw your cards on the table; this is a unspoken pairing.

I disagree sera, for one of the first times. I think its very romantic and makes you feel incredibly close to your partner if you give them a brief, but not complete, reason why you love them. It makes them feel special, and lets them KNOW, not just assume, that you aren't just with them for looks/status symbols/the good sex/etc.

Don't make the comment that others wanted you, its arrogant and egotistical. Simply say "I am so glad to be your boyfriend; you're so great for me because "insert comments", I am glad we're together because " " I made a wonderful decision to be with you because you're so sweet/caring/gentle/insert thoughtful adjective here" or something like that.

I do not see anything Sera said for you to disagree with. She said don't put all your cards on the table--you said "give them a brief, but not complete, reason why you love them." You stated the same thing using different words and then went on to add some helpful details. As far as I can tell you are both on the same page and I make it three.

try giving some hints, so she'll would try to dig deeper, that way you have her showing more interest in you, and you give her a little something something, then things get more serious, refer back to this and tell her the reason you didn't tell her yet, and please do say you have many girls chasing you, beside making you look bad(like a player-type) she'll probably not risk it. the best advice about other girls is don't bring them up period lol

Just be brief, in a few months time you are still getting acquainted. Doc is spot on! Same thoughts different words, keep some mystery for the future...that's all!

Ps CW: You can disagree with me!

[curious_woman]

Oh, sorry sera I guess I misinterpreted you it was late when I wrote that. I thought you meant he shouldn't tell her anything at all.

Thanks for the advice boardies!

Now my next question to you all is, should I put it down on paper and give it to her like a love letter or tell her vocally?

[dancingdoc2]

Talk to the woman!~

Paper is for love notes and memos.

There's something dreadfully wrong here if he has to TELL her why he dating her and not some other chickybaby. She should KNOW why by his enthusiasm, his ardor, and statements he has made as in "You're so_____!"
